Description
Dougie is one of those dogs who touches your heart before you even realise it.
A soft gaze, a kind soul, and a gentle nature that shines through everything he does.
He was rescued from the public shelter/killing station, a place no dog should ever experience.
Even there, his sweetness never left him. He simply waited ā quietly, hopefully ā for someone to see him.
Now safe in a private shelter, Dougie is blossoming beautifully.
But itās clear he doesnāt belong behind bars.
He belongs with people ā with a family, a warm home, and a heart to call his own.
